Pest Control for Restaurants

Serving Broward County and Palm Beach County

As a restaurant owner, keeping pests out is one of your top priorities. A clean environment is crucial for the success and reputation of your establishment, and pests can deter customers from returning and lead to negative reviews. They also cause food safety issues that can result in failed health inspections and even restaurant closures. 

We’re all too familiar with these issues food businesses have with infestations, which is why we offer top-notch extermination services. Our team specifically tailors pest control methods for restaurants and other related businesses. 

Types of Pests in Restaurants

Pests commonly found in restaurants include:

• Ants
• Cockroaches 
• Rodents 
• Spiders  
  

How to Prevent Pest Infestations

Just like your customers, pests are attracted to your restaurant for the food. They also find water sources and shelter in restaurants. Insects and rodents are particularly drawn to kitchens and outdoor areas where they can easily access food products. 

To keep pests away from your South Florida restaurant, follow these six simple practices:

1. Maintain a clean dumpster area: Decaying food waste is a magnet for many pests. Keep your dumpster area clean, and make sure lids are always closed to discourage pest activity.
2. Seal doors and windows: Flies, rodents, and other pests can enter through open doors, windows, and gaps. Keep them tightly closed and seal any gaps to prevent pests from invading your restaurant.
3. Clean up food debris: Most pests enter restaurants in search of food. Regularly sweep crumbs from under tables and keep food prep areas clean to make your establishment less attractive to pests.
4. Maintain clean floor drains: Dirty drains attract flies and other pests, serving as a common breeding ground. Regularly clean your drains to eliminate this issue.
5. Use clean garbage cans: Utilize garbage liners in cans with tight-fitting lids to maintain cleanliness. Regularly check and clean garbage cans to keep pests at bay.
6. Bring in professional pest exterminators: Pest control experts, like us at Petri Pest Control Services, Inc., know exactly how to identify, remove, and prevent infestations.
